Description A photo taken through the trees of the lake at Del Valle Regional Park near Livermore in California, capturing the view seen from one of the many hiking trails in the park.
John Krzesinski, Pleasanton, CA Member Since April 2009 Artist Statement I'm a 20+ year veteran of the IT industry who takes pictures for (my) pleasure and as a substitute for my abysmal memory. :)
I tend not to spend a lot of time post-processing my shots - If a picture doesn't appeal to me as the camera took it I'll likely discard the photo, so apart from a few obvious exceptions what you see here is pretty much what I took.
I take pictures to please me, and to capture the beauty around me (something my mother taught me to appreciate - may she rest in peace) - I'm not a professional photographer (although I'm looking to use my hobby as a means to fund itself), I'm not "arty" (although I am starting to experiment), and if others like my efforts too then I'm happy to have given people a little pleasure from my hobby.
